HOW IT STARTED

Ganley Group is directed by Liam Ganley, a construction project manager turned publican. 

In 2011 The Global Financial Crisis was the catalyst for Liam leaving his home in the west or Ireland and making his way to Melbourne. Although he hadn’t worked in hospitality before moving to Melbourne, he spent a large part of his life (as the Irish do) on the other side of the bar and absorbed that magic that makes Irish bars the best in the world; the pub is the essence of Ireland, and the influence of growing up in Ireland can clearly be felt through the design, hospitality and warmth of all our venues.

HOW IT’S GOING

Now with 4 venues and over 100 employees.

Our people are at the heart of our business, and their happiness, development and wellbeing is our number one priority.

We pride ourselves on providing a positive and inclusive workplace for all our staff.
